This matter is on calendar for further proceedings on an amended Petition to Remove Successor Trustee, Appoint Alternate Successor Trustee, for Accounting and Inventory, and Other Relief. An objection was previously filed. At the last hearing, the Court ordered an accounting to be filed and served. This matter is also on calendar for hearing on a Petition for Approval of Accounting, Attorney Fees, Reimbursement to Trustee, and Distribution of Trust Assets. The matter has been properly noticed with proof of service on file. No objections have been raised. The Trust provided for equal distribution of the residue of the estate to Kenneth Duke, Melissa Allen, and Brandi Duke-Foster. The Petition indicates that distribution was not made equally, but that Mr. Duke consented to the distribution. No consent has been filed as stated in item 30 of the Petition.
